Johnston Estep Walter: The Principles of Knowledge, Gebunden

Klappentext

Time not an entity like space, but only a property of entities  The duration of changes and of transient and minor objects measured in the duration of great and per manent objects  Space and time related to each other as entity and property  This relation accounts wholly for the application to both of the same terms  Modes of time Time a universal property. Is both subjective and objective  Objective time known only by means of subjective time The thought and measurement of time that precedes and follows personal experience, and of great periods of time  The bounds of a duration, like those of a space, propel thought beyond themselves The elementary materials of all time-knowledge are not themselves timeless, but temporal Measurement of time  Time originally measured by subjective changes Employment of objective measurers  Absolute meas urement of time  The notion of time a singular, not a general notion  Cognition of number.
